Even more remarkable than her voice is that she put her career on the back burner at the height of it so she could be with her children and family. Amazing person and singer. One of the best country singers in the last 50 years.
If you are truly a vocalist ophicianado you absolutely must listen to more of Martina Mcbride! She has massive range, power and her control is second to none!! Go down this rabbit hole! If you truly love music you will absolutely love Martina!!
Pat Benatar was her idol when she was growing up. In the 90's they did a Crossroads episode together, a show that had a country & rock star together. They were fantastic. Martina's rendition of "somewhere over the rainbow" is the best. That huge voice from that tiny lady is amazing.
Don’t sleep on Martina!!! I can’t think of many other artists that tell stories and bring attention to important issues in such powerful and beautiful ways. Independence Day, Concrete Angel, Broken Wing, and How Far really demonstrate her storytelling and skill. Keep checking her out - she’s a masterclass.
it is Laura, only I didn't see her after she got famous. I was lucky enough to see her playing in various bars in Wichita, Kansas. She sang everything, but excelled with Pat Benatar songs. She had long hair down to her ...lower back. I had a huge crush on her before anyone knew who she was.
In 2001, I fell off a 40' cliff, and smacked my head on a rock suffering a class 3 tramdic brain injury. I remember hearing the angles and her voice reminds me of how they sounded. I actually have tears running down my cheeks because of her voice.
This is an original. Please continue to do reactions to her. Be warned you'll want a box of tissues nearby. Martina has done several songs that tell a story. Not a lot of singers sound the same way live as they do on recordings she does!
Before her & her husband moved to Nashville & got a start with Garth Brooks she sang in a band called The Penetrators & before that she sang with her father's band the Schiffters (Martina Schiff). She was an amazing singer even back then.
Martina is one of my favorite artists, country or other. Only thing is......she is notorious for pulling on the heart strings & making your eyeballs leak....lol. Independence Day, Anyways, Concrete Angel, God's Will, In My Daughter's Eyes, Broken Wing, ugh I could go on & on. That voice, the lyrics, those piercing blue eyes. Martina is one of a kind❤
Recommend "A Broken Wing" by Martina from Farm Aid. Also - "When You Say Nothing At All" - Alison Krauss "Strawberry Wine" - Deana Carter "Follow Your Arrow" - Kacey Musgraves My favorite songs by female country artists
Must do concrete angel, broken wing, Independence Day. She is so great in concert. Saw her on this album tour. The entire album was fantastic. Not a single track I skip. In my daughters eyes is my fav by her.
I saw her live with Garth Brooks back in the day when her husband was selling merch for Garth. Garth was the hugest country star and she kind of came out of nowhere when she started opening his shows. Blew me away, 100% and I have loved her ever since. ❤️👑
Martina is more country than pop depending on which song it is. Country music and rock music go hand in hand. Bon Jovi will slip into Nashville occasionally listen to local artists sing for inspiration! You should explore country music but be very particular about which artist and song or you will be disappointed! Thanks for sharing!
Martina has sung covers before (one of her albums is all covers - I think it’s called Timeless). There is nothing wrong with singing songs others have sung if you sing them well. I’ve heard Martina sing a beautiful rendition of “Over the Rainbow” and Reba McEntire’s signature song is “Fancy” which was originally written and performed by Bobbie Gentry.
Love this! This is one my fav songs from Martina. Have seen her live multiple times. She doesn't disappoint. If you want to see her with a live band check out her Farm Aid live performance of A Broken Wing. Incredible. Her song How Far is also fantastic.
I’m a big Whitney Houston fan, I love women with a rich tone, Martina is it for country music for me her song “in my daughter’s eyes” is one of my favorites…she is such a beautiful Kansas born country girl
Martina has so many hits- her voice is so rich and full. If exceptional guitar playing is something that excites you, listen to Carrie Underwood and Vince Gill sing “How Great Thou Art”- it’s good like this song …but on steroids it’s so good!
Hey SalvoG, go watch "Concrete Angle" Martina McBride is one of the best Vocalists in the world even today... There are entertainers that sing, dance on stage & then you have Martina McBride that really knows how to sing period, without props or dancers needed to prop up like other singers do. Martina doesn't need to prove anything... 🍀
He needs to check out the Armenian singer Harout Pamboukjian - original, soulful, astoundingly effortless & professional performer. Also the Turkish singer Ferdi Tayfur - not necessarily the world's best singer but by far Earth's most emotional vocalist. . Ferdi packs more nuanced punch in a single sentence than most great singers have in an entire song. Lastly, Turkish singer Ibrahim Tatlises - their country's biggest selling singer of all time. He has such astounding vocal control and flexibility , able to change notes three or four times in a second - almost like his voice is "fluttering". These three singers rocked my American world when I discovered them at around the age of 40. Never again has it mattered if I understood a single world of any foreign language.
If you want something new, check out Ringmasters. They are a championship barbershop quartet from Sweden. You’ll never walk alone/Climb every mountain medley is fantastic!!!!!!!
i am not a fan of country, but martina mcbride is excelsior when it comes to the genre. i want megadeth and pantera, but im not getting cringe face when it comes to her. she is the best.
That's an old clip and unfortunately since then Martina has pretty much lost her voice completely. Check out some recent live footage on RUclips and you can see for yourself what a difference there is. Besides when a performer becomes political they generally alienate their audience... especially when the country is in the shape it's in now under the administration she's so boldly supported.
Even more remarkable than her voice is that she put her career on the back burner at the height of it so she could be with her children and family. Amazing person and singer. One of the best country singers in the last 50 years.
She is singing this live...with an orchestra!
What a set of lungs 🫁 martina my favorite female country music Singer . the best .
She is freaking amazing..bigger than a symphony..met her in the 90s..she brings tears to my eyes💕
I love Martina McBride's songs
This was one of the best live female vocal performances I’ve ever heard. Up there with Celine Dion’s ability to sound incredible live.
She is such a amazing
her control is crazy. each time she does a line of the chorus, it gets just abit more powerful, emotional
If you are truly a vocalist ophicianado you absolutely must listen to more of Martina Mcbride! She has massive range, power and her control is second to none!! Go down this rabbit hole! If you truly love music you will absolutely love Martina!!
Pat Benatar was her idol when she was growing up. In the 90's they did a Crossroads episode together, a show that had a country & rock star together. They were fantastic. Martina's rendition of "somewhere over the rainbow" is the best. That huge voice from that tiny lady is amazing.
This was definitely her song. She nails it!!!
This was a completely live performance, the entire band was live.
I never miss the opportunity to watch a Reactor “See” Martina sing this song Live.
Country is true Musicianship!
i would never turn away from her lyrical prose and toe tapping amazement of musical prowess.
Don’t sleep on Martina!!! I can’t think of many other artists that tell stories and bring attention to important issues in such powerful and beautiful ways. Independence Day, Concrete Angel, Broken Wing, and How Far really demonstrate her storytelling and skill. Keep checking her out - she’s a masterclass.
Totally agree! Her voice and storytelling ability are amazing!
Agree, agree!!
Watching her in person is remarkable. It is effortless with her
it is Laura, only I didn't see her after she got famous. I was lucky enough to see her playing in various bars in Wichita, Kansas. She sang everything, but excelled with Pat Benatar songs. She had long hair down to her ...lower back. I had a huge crush on her before anyone knew who she was.

Strongly recommend "Independence Day" by her !
She has so many great songs. 90's country was so much better than today's country.
Beautiful voice. Beautiful woman
Definately her original song!
This is an original. Please continue to do reactions to her. Be warned you'll want a box of tissues nearby.
Martina has done several songs that tell a story. Not a lot of singers sound the same way live as they do on recordings she does!
Love that voice. So, very, very rich & strong.
I love it
One time saw her sing "Whatever You Say" she got a standing O halfway through the song. The crowd lost their damn Minds, with good reason.
Before her & her husband moved to Nashville & got a start with Garth Brooks she sang in a band called The Penetrators & before that she sang with her father's band the Schiffters (Martina Schiff). She was an amazing singer even back then.
I heard her live at the Calgary Stampede many years ago. She does not miss a note ever. She did have a live band that night and it was great.
I am glad you did this one, I hope you have done more, gonna check out your videos!
Martina is one of my favorite artists, country or other. Only thing is......she is notorious for pulling on the heart strings & making your eyeballs leak....lol.

The best in country,,,,,, by a country mile...

Amazing…Can’t say I am a huge country follower, but I know Martina 😊 Concrete Angel is a good song from her.

Sha came out of know where because Garth heard her sing.
Wild Angels is her favorite

This is totally live. She does have a band in the background. And yes this is an original song all of her songs are

I’ve heard Martina sing a beautiful rendition of “Over the Rainbow” and Reba McEntire’s signature song is “Fancy” which was originally written and performed by Bobbie Gentry.
Never said she hasn't sang covers because I know she has but this is her original song
Independence Day and concrete angel are a must, along with a box of tissues
Very nice! ❤️ Reminds me of Faith Hill, who I really love.
Love this! This is one my fav songs from Martina. Have seen her live multiple times. She doesn't disappoint. If you want to see her with a live band check out her Farm Aid live performance of A Broken Wing. Incredible. Her song How Far is also fantastic.

Many more songs to cover many have mentioned. Valentine is my favorite, probably because it's not sad.
Agree with Independence Day but also Wild Angels which are more up tempo. Great catelog!! 💞
Martina IS an ANGEL on Earth. Period. End of
My favorite country female voice❤
Martina started the power note in country music.
Sou do Brasil e amo á Martina❤
Hey SalvoG, go watch "Concrete Angle" Martina McBride is one of the best Vocalists in the world even today... There are entertainers that sing, dance on stage & then you have Martina McBride that really knows how to sing period, without props or dancers needed to prop up like other singers do.

You would also enjoy Kelley Clarkson Meaning of Life Nashville sessions...great musicians and backup singers too.

She knocked his socks off
Toby Keith - "How Do You Like Me Now"!! Ass-kicking song!!
It was a Martina original and there was a full and live orchestra.
Everything she's sing is great and she so little
Her brother is her drummer
The band is there, you just can’t see them. They’re at the back of the stage.
Yes this is her song
Listen to broken wings
this is original
Beautiful woman with beautiful eyes...
Three great ones that need to see for hee range is CONCRETE ANGEL. BROKEN WING. INDEPENDENCE DAY
She has a lot of uptempo songs though u need to check out!
Live band behind the sides
Wild Angels
I think any sane artist would be wise to not even think about attempting to cover this song
It’s all her. whatever you say. and Wild Angels. Independence day Met her4 times
He has to react to broken wing if he hasn’t yet!
Have met her four times
...and smokin' hot on top of all that.
If you want something new, check out Ringmasters. They are a championship barbershop quartet from Sweden. You’ll never walk alone/Climb every mountain medley is fantastic!!!!!!!
A great newer artist is Jennifer Nettles of SUGARLAND. STAY and THAT GIRL are some of the best
If you want your heart broken, please listen to Concrete Angel.
React to her music video for her song Teenage Daughters.
And she's very family orientated, raising daughters with her husband, I believe there is three of them.
i am not a fan of country, but martina mcbride is excelsior when it comes to the genre. i want megadeth and pantera, but im not getting cringe face when it comes to her. she is the best.
She's a little tiny thing can't go rong with her
Concrete Angel. Just have some tissues handy.
Martina misses no notes bro
Phoney guy! He already knew the video acting like this is a "reaction" lol
Sad, she needs nothing but voice!! Shut up and listen.
That's an old clip and unfortunately since then Martina has pretty much lost her voice completely. Check out some recent live footage on RUclips and you can see for yourself what a difference there is. Besides when a performer becomes political they generally alienate their audience... especially when the country is in the shape it's in now under the administration she's so boldly supported.
Yes
Her brother is her drummer
Listen to broken wings
